However, recently signed Androni Giocattoli-Venezuela rider John Ebsen, who was riding on the day for the CCN Cycling Team, was not to be denied as the 26-year-old Dane celebrated his birthday with a blistering attack over the race’s steepest climb (27.3 per cent) to wrest control of the race from rival Yeung Ying Hon Ronald (Team Js Kids-WAST) and claim his second win in three years.
